I struggle each day with this!! Any one else struggle with letting their precious kitties out!!


Yes Ma'am I do. :( I HATE letting mine out, but they would go bonkers if I didn't. Fortunately we live on a quiet street and everyone BUT me has cats that live outside 24/7 <_< so the drivers are really careful.

I really try not to let them out when I'm not home, and that works most of the time. I always call them in at twilight. I used to let them roam until 10:00 PM, but then the new "angry" kitty started coming around to beat up my boys, so they have an earlier curfew now. :P We also have a resident coyote that will sometime make his way to our street around twilight. :o It's good motivation to get them inside I tell ya!

Sometimes they don't want to get with the "program" and end up staying out late, but I can't relax until they're safely tucked in for the night.

:psycho: cat lady.

We are all crazy cat ladies!!

I love it!! If if were up to me I would have oh so many cats!! Even Mr. G said the AM that we needed kittens since our girls were so grown up!! :unsure: :lol: :clap:

Mine are all strictly inside. The closest they get to the outdoors is our screened in back porch.

Stories like these further cement my reasoning to continue keeping them inside only. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if one of mine 'ran away', etc. because of me letting them go outside. That, and the fact that 2 cats in my neighborhood (a nice, upper-class place) have been found killed, and put into trash bags in the past 2wks. :no: Yup, my kitties stay IN!

The photo of Puckers and Monkey Beans (that has got to be my favorite name EVER) is adorable. Puckers has lovely ears, plenty big to hear you with. :)

One of mine is an inside cat and the other is inside/outside (when people are home and only for an hour or two at a time and never when it's dark. Catra is super happy the time changed).
I def a crazy cat lady too. I talk about my cats all the time and actually call people to tell them the "cute" things they do.
